📋 About This Mod
🔥 OStim Hot Swap 🔥
Tag 'em in, tag 'em out, or swap 'em around without missing a beat!
⚠️ Requires OStim Standalone version 7. 4a+!!!
✨ Ever wished you could just... change the lineup?
You’re in the middle of a scene and realized it’s getting a bit crowded? Or maybe it’s a bit too lonely? Or perhaps the person on the left should definitely be the one on the right?
OStim Hot Swap is here to save your immersion! No more stopping the scene, awkward standing around in the dark, and restarting from scratch. This mod lets you dynamically modify your active OStim threads on the fly. It’s like being a director, but with more... physical contact. 🎬🌶️
🛠️ What can it do?
-
[]➕ Add an Actor: Bring a nearby friend into the mix!
[
]➖ Remove an Actor: Someone's overstayed their welcome? Kick 'em out (even yourself!).[]🔄 Swap Actors: Switch positions between two actors to keep things fresh.
Wait, how does it work?
The mod performs a quick fade-out/fade-in to "re-roll" the thread. This ensures that any other mods relying on OStim's start/stop events (like clothing, expressions, or physics) stay synced up and happy! ✅
🎮 How to use (For Players)
It’s tucked right into the menus you already know:
[]Open the OStim Navigation menu.
[]Click the Options button (it's right under the Alignment button).
[]Select Manage Actors.
[]Pick your poison: Add, Remove, or Swap!
🕵️ The Rules of the Game:
-
[] Add: The mod scans for nearby NPCs who aren't busy. It respects your OStim gender settings and - most importantly - your installed animations. If you're in an FFM scene and want to add another Male, but you don't have FFMM animations... the mod will politely say "no thanks" to avoid a crash-fest! 🚫💥
[] Remove: Pick anyone in the current thread. Yes, even the player.
[] Swap: You'll get two menus to pick the "swappees." Note: They must be compatible genders based on your MCM settings. You can't put a square peg in a round hole unless the MCM says you can! 🔄
⚠️ Pro Tip: If people are staying dressed (or naked) when they shouldn't be after a swap, go to SKSE\Plugins\OStimHotSwap.ini and bump the waiting time from 1000ms to something a bit higher.

📊 Pros & Cons

- Lightweight utility that does one thing well

💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure your OStim Standalone is updated to at least 7.4a before installing this mod, or it won't work.
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 to install and enable the mod, and check that it loads after OStim in your load order.
- Test the hot swap feature in a simple scene first to get comfortable with the controls before using it in complex scenes.
